Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order a transcript for my AMCAS or LSAC application?
The easiest, most efficient method is to order an electronic transcript. Our agent, Parchment, has a special in-network arrangement with AMCAS & LSAC. When you choose AMCAS or LSAC from the drop-down menu, you will have additional fields into which you can plug your special ID #s. Those will then automatically transfer to AMCAS or LSAC along with the transcript. There is no need to upload a separate form.
What’s the difference between an OFFICIAL and an UNOFFICIAL transcript?
- An OFFICIAL [paper] transcript is printed on special, watermarked paper. Official paper transcripts are sent in a sealed, signature-stamped envelope.
- An electronic transcript is OFFICIAL if the intended party is the direct email recipient. If a transcript is forwarded from its original recipient, it is then considered UNOFFICIAL.
- An electronic transcript which is printed then re-scanned in an email is considered UNOFFICIAL.
What are the options for requesting a transcript?
- Please see the information above for paper-copy or electronic options.
- We accept paper form transcript requests via mail.
- Both paper and electronic transcripts can be ordered using a credit card in Parchment the online transcript ordering system. Only paper transcripts are available to order on line for pre-1987 alumni.
What ID do I use?
- Your 8-digit student ID# [beginning with ‘00’ or ‘000’] is the best for our locating your records.
- The next-best # is your SSN.
- We also can locate your record with a complete name [including the full middle].
What if I only want part of my transcript sent?
Middlebury does not issue partial transcripts. Each transcript includes the student’s complete record in all academic programs at Middlebury.
What are the fees?
